I Love You, Mama

Down along Louisiana bayous
Jeffrey sits and sings a song
Serenadin' Lillian
Who loves to linger there the evening long

I, I love you, mama
Let it be
Only me as your man
And if you can
Can love me, mama

Up town, hoe-down
Go 'round dancin' with me (Go 'round dancin' with me)

Move along your sleepy river ship
You're reflections of the moon
Take advantage of the evening
Lily of the Valley wants to swoon

The hours are wastin', mama
Let me know
Can I go on with you
Or do I run
Run, doo-dah, mama?

Up town, hoe-down
Go 'round dancin' with me (Go dancin' with me)
Go dancin' with me (Go dancin' with me)
Go dancin' with me (Go dancin' with me)

(Go dancin' with me)
(Go dancin' with me)
(Go dancin' with me)
(Go dancin' with me)
